It was past 10 pm and everyone at Malhotra office was ready for the rescue mission of their beloved Suman. She had now become the heart of Malhotra family and office as well. She had won everyone's love at home with her caring and forgiving nature. Even at the Office she was everyone's favorite. She would add a secret dessert in her menu as a surprise if it was someone's birthday to make them feel special and appreciated, she would greet each employee with respect, no matter their age or designation; that was the reason no one wanted to leave until they get her back. They were all set to do their part as instructed by Shravan.

'Bhaiya looks like Sharma ji is out of town, so we had to set up a camera at Dixit uncle's home but the problem is we can just keep an eye in the front, can't find out anything about what's going on inside'
That's ok Chotte, replied Shravan. We at least have some eyes on Tewari Qilla, any tip would help us a lot. Just make sure the officers are able to monitor it live. What about the boxes and the truck?
They are arranged Bhaiya and will be reaching to the point soon and then wait for a go from you

Perfect!!

Mr. Malhotra everything's ready for the car swap, informed one of the Officers. And two members of our other team are at the Magistrate's house for the warrant. They will reach their respective point soon and be on standby until they hear from you

Sounds good! Thank you Officer. Let's check the live feed from Tewari Qilla

About that, replied the Officer. We didn't find any suspicious activity in the time that we've been watching. If you don't mind.. he paused and hesitated for a bit, then continued. If you don't mind me asking, are you sure that your wife is in Tewari Qilla?

Yes Officer. I know she is in there, but let's look up the feed again
Pushkar followed along, they looked up but the house and the gate still seems to be locked with no lights or movements visible from outside and even no vehicle parked close to the house.
Gautam is very smart, didn't leave any trace, uttered a worried Shravan looking at the live feed, but there must be something, he wondered scratching his forehead

Can you call Preeti here Chotte? Maybe she can help
Sure, I'll go get her

The first thing Preeti noticed was the lock. Where did that lock come from? She wondered
What do you mean? asked the Officer
I was the one locked it and it's not this one for sure. The gate always had the steel lock since our childhood not this fancy one
I knew it!! exclaimed Shravan hitting the table. They're in there Officer, now do you believe me? I need someone to monitor this live feed and keep me informed. Gautam or his men will definitely go out, and we need to be prepared

How will you go in Mr. Malhotra?
Don't worry about that Officer, they won't see me get in replied Shravan
Trust Bhaiya on this Officer, he very well knows how to get to Sumo, chuckled Pushkar earning a glare from Shravan which changed into a smile later. The thought of being with Sumo made his heart flutter

One more thing Officer, please zoom in around Tewari Qilla and run every license plate that's parked outside, we might get a clue about their rides for sure
Will do it and update you. And sorry for doubting you Mr. Malhotra, we on the rescue mission as planned. 'It's alright' Shravan nodded

Papa! Where is Papa? he inquired, when he couldn't find Ramnath. One of the employee came forward and whispered something to him

What? But he...

Shravan rushed out of the conference room to find him and was dumbfounded to see his dad with hands folded towards a corner in Mr. Bhaskar's cabin where the latter had a small mandir. He never saw his dad so helplessly praying with tears rolling down his face

Papa is all he could utter

'I' am scared Shravan'. He turned and hugged him tight. Suman ko le kar hi aana.
Trust me Papa, Sumo ko kuch nahi hoga. Mai Sumo ko saath le kar hi aaunga par aap ko aise nahi dekh sakta
